MILTON, Ga. — A Milton man was arrested Nov. 27 on a warrant after he had reported to police that his father burglarized his home while on a trip abroad.
The man told police that day his father had taken his $5,000 motorcycle in June and had not returned it after repeated attempts to retrieve it. The man said a house sitter had told him the house was a mess and that someone had been inside, according to the incident report. The man said his father admitted to taking various items, including his bike, and that he would return them once he got back into the country.
Police contacted the man’s father, who said he was “safekeeping” the items for his son and that he had not returned them because of a physical disability. The father told police he would try to return the motorcycle by Dec. 1, the incident report says.
While investigating the incident, police found the man who filed the complaint had an outstanding warrant. According to a second report, police arrested him for a failure to appear for a DUI and transported him to the North Fulton County Jail.
